But one word which could NEVER be used to describe the Ballon D'Or winner is 'normal'. As the video above proves, even when the Real Madrid superstar tries his level best to act like an average person, it just doesn't work.

In this new advert for Portuguese telecommunications giant MEO, Ronaldo has been dropped into the middle of a typical family. The gag appears to be that in this "normal" home, Cristiano Ronaldo has to suffer the same mundane, routine, soul-crushingly regular existence as the rest of us.

He is even treated with contempt by the man of the house, who coldly and cruelly boots him out of his seat and makes him sit on the floor.
